While living in Chambers County, Alabama, the Clayton's neighbor was Willis Jones. Willis Jones was the enslaver of Jack Jones and his family. Ned and Jack probably knew each other. About 130 years later Ned's great great great granddaughter would marry Jackson's great great great grandson. I wonder what they'd make of this. [Read more about the Jack Jones family.]
By 1815 Ned was living in Hancock County, Georgia. From Georgia he traveled to Chambers County, Alabama, then to Lumpkin, Stewart County, Georgia. At the end of the Civil War, Ned and Hannah were in Barbour County, Alabama and from there moved to Smith County, Texas. Many of his descendants moved to the Atoka area in the Choctaw Nation Indian Territory in Oklahoma.
